"The beast inside of me" might refer to him doing something on impulse, without an indication of what it is, OR acting out on doing something stupid to prove his love. "I am your servant, may I light your cigarette?" could refer to him willing to serve the girl he's so obsessed with; "I beg to serve, your wish is my law" could also point to this. "Now close those eyes and let me love you to death" meaning "let me love you till death do us part" - "Shall I prove I mean what I'm saying" referring to him proving just how much he loves this girl, or that he's willing to commit suicide, or even murder, in order to prove his love for her. "I say the beast inside of me's gonna get ya" could mean that he recognises that he's going to do something stupid in order to prove that his love for her is real. "Am I good enough for you" is him, of course, asking if he's good enough for her, as he probably feels that he ISN'T, and needs her to reassure him that he is, in fact, good enough. But what if she doesn't think he is? Who knows - maybe he'll eventually kill himself, or her. Type O Negative
Type O NegativeType O Negative (3 fans) Type O NegativeType O Negative was a gothic metal band from Brooklyn, New York City. Their lyrical emphasis on themes of romance, depression, and death resulted in the nickname "The Drab Four" (in homage to The Beatles' "Fab Four" moniker).

Is type O negative misogynistic?What Steele became infamous for in the mid-'80s, though, was his racist and misogynistic lyrics—written off by fans and hagiographers as “sarcastic”—and by extension, his perceived worldview.
